top Shanghai Party officials and 55% of polled netizens like thin, plain-faced chicks

at least that was the state of affairs back in 2009. From EastSouthWestNorth: Daily Brief Comments, February 1-28, 2009

Recently, the photos of Lu Jiali have been circulating around the Internet.  She is one of the principals in the Shanghai social security scandal, and it is said that she had been the mistress of (1) the director of the Shanghai Nuclear Power Company; (2) the chairman of a Shanghai investment company; (3) the former director of the Shanghai Social Security Administration; (4) Qin Yu, the former Shanghai City Government Office deputy secretary-general and later Baoshan district mayor; (5) the Shanghai City Party deputy secretary-general; (6) the Shanghai Electricity Company chairman; (7) the State Statistics Bureau director.

(STNN) More interesting is this Internet public opinion poll in conjunction with these photos.

Question:  If you were a government official, would you break the law for the sake of Lu Jiali?
55%: Yes
30%: No
15%: Don't know

Safe-for-work photos of Ms Luk Plainli are in the linked page.

I think she’s hot.

I don’t know that I’d break the law for her; which law are we talking about?

I’m in China, and most of the images of Lu Jiali are blocked, so it is difficult for me to see any photos of her.

The Chinese standard of beauty seems to be be tall, thin, big eyes, small mouth, and narrow jaw. Reminds me of Japanese anime.

In the one photo I could find of her she does not look “plain faced”.
Most of the Chinese that I talk to seem to think that Lucy Liu is “a little ugly”, so tastes in women can vary.

ok, she looks better here http://fisherwy.blogspot.com/2007/08/photo-of-professional-sex-briber-lu-jia.html . Maybe she is like Communism - best viewed at a distance and with some details covered up ;).

interesting, I see.

Lucy Liu pics in wikipedia to me look pretty similar to a white face. But no white ancestry seems mentioned in the article, so maybe that just happens to be one of Chinese facial types.
